Please Note: the TC102-1 is now an ancient component. This design was completed in approximately two weeks in the Winter of 1992 as a student project for a Physics course I took. Much better chips than the TC102-1 are now available, but parts of this design may still be interesting.
Many people who arrive at this page are interested in building a camera-style project. If that's you, the good news is that newer CMOS-based parts are now available that are much easier to use than CCDs and usually contain a lot of the hard-to-build support circuits (like this project) on the chip because of the CMOS process. A cool chip, which I have personally seen in operation, is the LM9627 Color Image Sensor Chip, 648 x 488 Pixel, 30 fps. This is a very modern part that will be a lot easier to use than a really primitive part like the ancient TC102-1.
I have not worked with other (newer) CCD array devices since this old project in 1992.
